Trek in Everest region and trek in Annapurna region

We booked an Everest luxury lodge trek followed by an Annapurna luxury trek with The Mountain Trekking Company. We managed to get to Ama Dablam basecamp on the Everest trek, having passed through Namche Bazaar, and then went on to Thame before trekking back to Lukla. We also had wonderful views of the Annapurna range on the less demanding Annapurna trek. We also had time to explore Kathmandu and Pokhara. This was a sensational holiday. Both ...

We booked an Everest luxury lodge trek followed by an Annapurna luxury trek with The Mountain Trekking Company. We managed to get to Ama Dablam basecamp on the Everest trek, having passed through Namche Bazaar, and then went on to Thame before trekking back to Lukla. We also had wonderful views of the Annapurna range on the less demanding Annapurna trek. We also had time to explore Kathmandu and Pokhara. This was a sensational holiday. Both guides and their assistants were brilliant and the accommodation was superb. Then guides made sure we went at a pace we could cope with at all times, with plenty of time to enjoy the scenery.

We booked both an Everest luxury lodge trek and an Annapurna luxury trek with The Mountain Trekking Company. Roland and his team could not have been more helpful in making sure we had the adventure of a lifetime. Both guides and their assistants were brilliant and the accommodation was superb. We managed to get to Ama Dablam basecamp on the Everest trek and then had wonderful views of the Annapurna range on the less demanding Annapurna trek. We would thoroughly recommend the company and are grateful for the individual attention we received.

"Was so impressed with The Mountain Company on my recent Himalayan trek. Very responsive to feedback, quick turnaround with any online queries and quality staff made for a fantastic trip. I would not hesitate to recommend them and will certainly look at future offerings from TMC when I next consider a trek in the mountains!"

Well organised from start to finish and excellent home and local leaders

This is a 2-weeks trekking holiday up to the Ama Dablam Base Camp at 4600 metres altitude in the Himalaya, close to Everest in Nepal. We met up in Kathmandu, then flied up to busy Lukla in flying taxis (small ~20 seater planes) to start our trek. The sight(s) of Everest and Ama Dablam were amazing/mesmerising and did not forget about those nice looking yaks and amazingly fit shepherds and porters. Making to the Base Camp without adverse effect ...

Making to the Base Camp without adverse effect was truly a relief as well as a big achivement for me....wonderful feeling!

Rating for tour operator:

The trek was well planned and organised in such a way that there were sufficient time to acclimatise with rising altitudes. The local guides were very knowledgeable with good communication and patience with us. The lodges were surprisingly quite well equipped and foods were resonable considering their location up in the mountain.

An Everest Pilgrimage

A lifetime's ambition achieved reaching Everest Base Camp on December 2014 to celebrate my 60th year.It was fair to say I was not the fittest and I struggled with the altitude, however with the help of the very caring guides and porters we finally reached our goal. I will take away wonderful memories of beautiful vistas and fantastic weather. Many thanks to all at the Mountain Company for organising such a well planned programme aiding acclimatis...

The Mountain Company from website to delivery of the Trek itself were impressive in all aspects of their organisation. They were always available on the phone prior to the trip to answer any queries I had. All their staff on the trek were brilliant and very professional. If ever I go to the Himalayas again these are the only people I would go with. Job well done

Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek - Nepal

The Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek takes place in northeastern Nepal. It is a 21 day walk through low valleys, Tibetan villages and the high Himalaya. The scenery is spectacular. This is one of my favorite treks.

I traveled with The Mountain Company (TMC) on their Kanchenjunga Circuit trek in Nepal in October 2014. The trek was well planned and organized and the pre-trip information provided made sure everyone was prepared for the trek. The equipment provided by TMC was very good and the trekking staff was excellent. TMC is a top notch company. This was my second trip with The Mountain Company and I will certainly travel with them again.

having wanted to visit the Himalaya since I was 15, I eventually arrive in Nov 2013. Researching travel companies I found the ethics of the Mountain Company were alongside my own . Roland was helpful, professional and passionate about our trip from day one. The trek from booking to our return to UK was superb. I can't recommend them highly enough, so much so I've booked to return

Annapurna Sanctuary Trek, Nepal

We had 12 nights on trek to Annapurna Base Camp and also 3 nights in Kathmandu and 2 nights in Pokhara. Before starting the trek we flew from Kathmandu to Pokhara and then drove to Nayapul where the trek started. On the return leg we drove back to Kathmandu - a very interesting and worthwhile road trip!

Rating for tour operator:

The Mountain Company provided an excellent all round service both in UK and Nepal. Roland Hunter and his team are extremely well organised and willing to adapt the trip to suit where possible. Problems which arose on the trek (no fault of TMC)were professionally dealt with by the guide and staff in Kathmandu resulting in no inconvenience to us at all. We cannot thank Roland and his team enough(especially Prem Gurung and Tara our guides) for helping us have the time of our lives!
